Tim and Margarita's Castle Engagement Session at Squire's Castle in Willoughby, Ohio

Isn’t it great when you meet someone and just mesh well together? That’s how I felt the first time I met Margarita and Tim. I could literally talk with them for hours - they’re totally my kind of people! I instantly clicked with them and know their wedding was going to be a fun one! I mean, they told me about their pet pig, MooShu, and I knew from that very second that I liked them :P The best part is, they wanted Moosh in their engagement pictures! Being the animal lover that I am, I was STOKED to play with her and get her in some pictures….

Marcus and Anthony's Winter Engagement Session at Chase Tower in Downtown Warren, Ohio

One thing I love about being a photographer is getting to meet so many new people. As easily as my profession connects me with new people, it also gives me an opportunity to reconnect with people I haven't talked to in a long time. With Marcus and Anthony, I get both of these connections. I've known Marcus since high school (I definitely won't say how many years ago THAT was) but met Anthony for the first time at our consultation. Of course it was nice to catch up with Marcus, but it also made me so happy that he found Anthony because they compliment each other so well!...

How to Create a Favorite's List in your Online Gallery

Picture this - it’s six weeks after your wedding day and you get your USB with all of your wedding photos. Yay! You have hundreds of photos to browse through and all of your family and friends are dying to see them, too. While it’s great to have your wedding images on a USB for safe keeping, it’s not so great for letting everyone else see your photos. Of course, you can have a wedding photo viewing party with everyone - which sounds like a lot of fun! But unfortunately, that’s not always an option. So what do you do?!
